Firing up that Galley Maid.
Chris,
I'm assuming that yours is alcohol (my old Galley Maid was), so all you need do is pour some denatured alcohol into your 1 or 2 gallon fuel tank and then pump it up to pressurize enough to move the alcohol through the fuel line to your stove. Be sure all the burners are off before using the pump.
There may well be a pressure gauge on the threaded tank fill or it may be separate nearby. Using a bicycle pump or other, pump until the needle tells you something that makes sense.
Now, before doing anything else, crack open one burner and let any air escape and then let the alcohol flow into a cup that should be below the actual burner head. Think castle moat and you've got it. Once that's filled sufficiently, close the burner valve and light the alcohol in the cup letting it burn off fully. Now crack the burner, light it and you're cookin', sorry for the pun. The reason being that need to burn off the fuel in the cup is in order to vaporize the liquid inside the burner body because it's that vapor you'll be burning, not the liquid. Here's a similar set of instructions that I just found by Googling

Note that they advise filling the bowl or cup only 3/4 full. I found that on really cold winter days I needed a full cup but you be the judge with your stove and your climate, just remember to let all that fuel burn off before trying to light the burner.
